What to Consider About Assisted Living in Lombard
With its charming old-fashioned feel and gorgeous parks and gardens, the village of Lombard offers a peaceful oasis in the bustling Chicago metro area. This quaint suburb is home to Lilacia Park, which is home to over 200 varieties of lilac and other flowers, and the host of an annual Lilac Festival with parades and entertainment.
Lombard itself is home to four assisted living facilities for senior residents to choose from, and an additional 60 facilities are located in nearby towns. Like all assisted living communities in Illinois, these are overseen by the Division of Assisted Living, which is part of the Illinois Department of Public Health. Facilities are required to undergo annual license renewal to ensure they're meeting current regulations.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Lombard
- Lombard tends to have mild summers, with average highs in the mid-80s during June, July and August. However, winters can be harsh, which may make it difficult for seniors to get around. January lows average around 14 degrees Fahrenheit, and the town gets approximately 31 inches of snowfall annually.
- Like most of the Chicagoland area, Lombard has numerous public transportation options for seniors who don't drive. The PACE bus system has routes throughout Lombard and connects to other towns, and the Metra commuter rail line runs through town and can take passengers all the way into downtown Chicago. Both offer reduced fares for seniors.
- The cost of living in Lombard is fairly high compared to the national average, but housing prices are a significant factor that may not apply to seniors who are living in assisted living facilities. Groceries and healthcare costs tend to be slightly lower than the national average, which may help balance out expenses for seniors on a fixed income.
- Lombard is a fairly safe community with lower rates of property and violent crime than the U.S. average. Property crime rates are slightly higher than those of Illinois as a whole, but violent crime rates are significantly lower than the state average. Nevertheless, seniors should continue to take a common-sense approach when deciding to venture out on their own, particularly in neighboring metropolitan areas.
- The Lombard area is home to world-class medical facilities, including the Edward-Elmhurst Health Center and Elmhurst Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Lombard is located near many activities seniors can enjoy, including Lilacia Park and the Morton Arboretum. Chicago is home to world-class museums, theater, music and other arts and culture attractions.
